Svech
Landeskog
Guentzel
Fox
Nurse
Pietrangelo
I won our league this year and hoping to repeat. Managed to only give up a fifth rounder at the deadline so should be good for the draft but would like to either consolidate to improve my fourth keeper or at least try to get an extra pick or two in the early rounds by flipping some players.
At a loss of who to keep and who to sell high on. I get to keep 1 G, 2 D and 4 FWD. To me the no brainers are:
Vasilevskiy
Makar
Pastrnak
Rantanen
Aho
How would you rank:
Landeskog
Guentzel
Svechnikov
(guessing Boeser is a clear fourth for most here)
and rank:
Nurse
Fox
Pietrangelo
I am struggling with who to keep and who to flip. I can only keep one of Guentzel, Landeskog and Svechnikov. Leaning towards Guentzel as Landy seems like he is a bit too dependent on the others in COL and Svech just doesn't seem destined for first line time in Carolina. As for D, Pietrangelo came on so strong late and in the playoffs, and in our scoring system Nurse was a top 5 D last year, so wondering if I should try and sell high on Fox or if I am overthinking.

I’d keep fox for sure and then the forwards it’s tough, I’d say this year maybe guentzel or landy but svech is close enough that I’d probably keep him as like him more than those 2 after this season.
You have to go with Fox and Guentzel( win now and next year) or \Svech (close to guentz but more long term)

You definitely have to keep Fox. I'd rather have Svechnikov over Guentzel but they're close enough that it's a matter of personal preference.
Nope. Opposing thought here. Fox is the new shiny toy, worth far more in the trade market than in fantasy league. I’d package him with Landeskog, and go after big game. Huberdeau?? (And keep Nurse.) Win now mode, right?

I also like Fox. AP is right there but looking out 2 years, Fox is your guy. As some have said, the forwards are close. Guentzel is 26 and in the middle of his prime. That's a keep. Landy is 28 years old and I think we have seen his best. Svech, is 21 and at that age is right in the middle of this discussion. I don't think we have yet seen what he can do and I suspect that will be significant. In a keeper, I'm liking Svech big time I keep Jake and Svech and shop Landy.

Thanks everyone for all the thoughts. I am glad most folks are on the same page as me with either Guentz or svech. The fox being the shiny new toy is sort of what I was thinking. I will likely see what the best return I can get is for fox + one of landy or Svech and let that determine the way forward. thanks again, rep given where possible.
